I got this one from Caroline, and I've stolen many answers from her, too. Who else wants to play? Consider yourself tagged...
1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? both my mother and my paternal aunt have my first name as their middle name. My middle name is my mother's maiden name.
2. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED? a few days ago, probably. I tear up really, really easily these days--sappy movies, thinking about Mariah's move west, frustration--you name it. I did not, however, cry at Twilight, I promise.
3. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING? I do, but it's illegible to most. (Copied from Caroline!)
4. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCH MEAT? Again I'm copying Caroline--it's bacon, though I don't eat it often.

12. DO YOU THINK YOU ARE STRONG? Physically, I'm a lot stronger than I used to be. Tae kwon do helps a lot.

14. WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT PEOPLE? Hair.

18. DO YOU WANT EVERYONE TO SEND THIS BACK TO YOU? No, but I'll enjoy reading the answers that turn up on other blogs.

No, I'm not going to do this one, but we really were so meant to be friends! Even to the last person I talked to on the phone being my mom (though I subsequently texted with M)! Haven't seen Twilight yet, though I finally read the book this weekend, but I did cry at Rachel Getting Married, and I never cry at movies (though I think that may be changing).
I've got mine up at spynotes.
Great list!
